Juana Mamani
a ferry landing town on Lake Titicaca, Bolivia
Juana Mamani runs a small dental clinic on the shores of Lake Titicaca, Bolivia. Meticulously organized, she keeps every receipt to the exacting standards her grandmother instilled in her, finding a sense of order amidst chaotic ferry schedules and unpredictable weather. Her nights are filled with concerns over her clinic's maintenance and dreams for her niece's education, which often inspire her to create.
